Cost
The Honey and Salt residencies program is not a commercial project. Red Clay only charges a modest fee to help support the cost of the facility.
There are no paid staff or housekeepers, we are welcoming you into our homestead, it’s not much but it’s paradise.
Residency fees are as follows:
Cost per week:
Private Rooms $ 80
Tiny Cabins $ 70
Dorm Bed in the main house $ 60
Dorm Bed in the greenhouse $ 60
Camping Fees $ 40
Residency fees cover accommodation and studio space, heat, power and internet. Accommodation covers a furnished bedroom space or loft.
Facilities include; cooking, internet, solar shower & studio space.
Basic supplies such as toilette paper and cleaning supplies are provided.
Food, transportation, and workshops not included.
Fees are low because we are busy making art. We therefore, ask residents to try to be self-sufficient and offer mutual support.
Workshops
During the season, there are a number of scheduled weekend workshops. These workshops tend to bring a group of 10-15 people to the property. Resident artists can either pay a partial fee to participate, volunteer as a support person, or work on their own.
Food
Everyone is responsible for bringing their own food.
The kitchen is well stocked with spices and dry goods (rice, flour, chick peas, lentils and beans) and residents may use the kitchen inventory provided they restock. Restocking should be done before a resident leaves.
We often divide the preparation of meals into teams. The system is simple: if you are sharing in these meals please be sure that you are providing food, as well as, consuming it, this usually works out to cooking every other day or so. If you have severe allergies please contact redclayforest@gmail.com and let us know in advance.
If you have severe allergies please contact redclayforest@gmail.com and let us know in advance.
All dietary specification should be recorded on the kitchen chalkboard.
Bringing Friends, Kids and Animals
Friends are welcome, but we ask that everyone staying overnight contribute $8.00 each per night if not a part of another program. This daily fee does not include food.
